Non tutti sanno che il dolore durante i rapporti sessuali ha precise cause mediche, oltre che psicosessuali o relazionali, che devono essere indagate con attenzione. Solo una diagnosi corretta, e soprattutto tempestiva, consente di individuarne le terapie più efficaci e risolutive. Per dare voce a questo dolore sessuale che colpisce quasi il 15 per cento delle donne, Alessandra Graziottin ha scritto un libro che è, innanzitutto, un lungo, intenso e affettuoso colloquio con le pazienti. Nelle loro storie, nel dialogo attento e a volte accorato in cui finalmente la verità del dolore viene accolta con rispetto e attenzione clinica, molte donne ritroveranno non solo la propria esperienza, ma anche una fondata speranza di poter guarire.
